intermediate: become a facilitator
Our zoom facilitator training will empower you to bring "The Lie that Caused Racism" stories to your congregation, school, or organization without needing to tell the stories yourself.
Facilitator training is two 3 hour sessions where you will hear all six stories and practice leading group wondering and noticing. You’ll get time to brainstorm how to best introduce these stories to your community.
Cost is $300, includes access to our storytelling videos. Scholarships available.
